This original painting of a female nude is 22"x33". Acrylic paint on heavy art paper/board, it is a study in light and dark, hot and cold enhancing the complex beauty of the naked female form. I love color. I love how nature contrasts day and night. Here, she lies in complete composure, her elegant hand accentuating the fullness of her breasts. Painting her, choosing pigments to represent her body and spirit, I chose colors of fire. Even though green and blue are the shadows, look deep into the heart of a fire. There you will see the entire spectrum of the rainbow. Where is life not? As we observe, so it is.
